1 Student Competencies: Technology & TEKS Benchmarks Assist our students in succeeding as consumers, responsible citizens, and effective workers in the 21 st century by becoming skilled, knowledgeable, independent, and self-directed learners through equitable access to technology and meeting state academic standards. Strategy: Equitably integrate technologies in K-12 curriculums in labs, classrooms, and media centers using the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Students will use technology as a tool to write and process information, prepare presentations, solve complex problems, communicate world-wide with students and experts, and access visual, auditory, and written information. Students will proficiently use basic software applications (keyboarding, word processing, spreadsheet, database, graphs, and presentation) to help accomplish given tasks. The district adopted Learning.com to achieve these technology competencies. The district will also use Learning.com, Google Apps for Education, Prodigy, Imagine Learning, Think Through Math, IStation, and Renaissance as a comprehensive supplemental curriculum component. The instructional technology team will continue to work with teachers in development of lessons that infuse technology within the curriculum. Three campuses within Troy ISD provide enrichment opportunities for students to gain advanced knowledge and skills within the field of technology. Technology Teams at Raymond Mays Middle School and Troy Elementary produce and edit videos and learn and investigate Microsoft Office programs. Likewise, the Troy High School Video Production class will produce and edit videos as student projects. The technology skills and concepts Troy students need to learn can be found on the following pages. All included skills will be mastered by the end of the 8 th grade year. Teachers at the high school will continue to use those skills within all subject areas. The skills are separated into categories and then divided by grade level. Each teacher in grades K-8 will be responsible for providing opportunities for students to learn and use the technology skills necessary for each grade level. Copies of the grade level forms will be provided for each teacher to document how technology was integrated into the curriculum. Page 1
2 Student Technology Competencies Scope and Sequence garten garten is often the first formal introduction students will have to technology applications and to 21st century skills. Early starts with technology literacy have long-term benefits across fields of study.
